P45

It's weird not having a job. Until yesterday it was something that other people were - unemployed that is - and now I'm it too. Luckily it was my choice and I was prepared. I can't really imagine what it would be like to be unexpectedly unemployed.

My last day was quite similar to the 1500-ish work days before it. I was at the same place most of the day. They were very nice about it and gave me a card that they'd all signed and a wallet. I left the building considering that I may never be back... Rather poignant really.





The folks at work were great. Several customers sent emails wishing us all the best and my (now ex) colleagues got us a few things to help us on our way, including a National Geographic explorer's set complete with binoculars and a compass - thanks Simon - and some shower gel, soap and breath fresheners... Maybe they were trying to tell me something?

I hope we'll all stay in touch because I really thought we all got on pretty well. One day we'll all get back together again I'm sure.

Still, as one chapter closes another opens. There's no going back now.
